Chapter 358: Faked Death

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Everyone at the wake was stunned.

Open the casket and autopsy the dead? What an outrageous thing to do?

“Qiao Yue, no matter how much the Qiao family doted on you before, you can’t do that.” Qiao Jing said.

He looked at Qiao Yue like she was a stranger, stunning her for a moment.

“Second brother, you’ve heard everything. Are you still going to protect Qiao Li and the third madam?”

Qiao Yue suddenly felt that the man standing in front of her was a stranger.

She never thought that her Qiao Jing would one day take Qiao Li and the third madam’s side.

“Qiao Jing, this audio recording is real. The grudge between Qiao Ying and the third madam is also real. Do you think everyone will be convinced if we didn’t perform an autopsy and do a DNA test today?” Yin He spoke up.

The crowd recognized Yin He as the head of the Yin family and agreed.

“That’s right. What’s said in the recording can’t be baseless. There might really be a problem. Better to check it out.”

“Yeah. Since Qiao Ying might not be a biological child of the Qiao family, her death at the Qiao residence is very suspicious.”

“Yes, there should be a thorough investigation. Otherwise, how would we know if it was a wrongful death?”

Qiao Yue looked at Qiao Jing. “Second brother, Qiao Ying has always trusted you. What would she think if you treat her like this?”

Qiao Jing looked at Qiao Yue coldly. “Open the casket and perform an autopsy.” Qiao Ying’s corpse appeared before everyone’s eyes as the casket was opened. A pale-faced girl was lying in the coffin wearing a simple dress. The crowd gasped.

Not because of anything but the bruises on the girl’s arms and legs, and marks on her wrists that indicated that she had been bound by chains.

“Qiao Ying!” Qiao Yue leaned over the casket and looked at Qiao Ying, tears welling up in her eyes.

She regretted not bringing Qiao Ying to K-Country with her. If she had brought Qiao Ying along, perhaps she wouldn’t have suffered all of this.

“Qiao Ying!” Qiao Yu also ran over when he saw Qiao Ying’s body.

He couldn’t believe that his favorite little sister had died so tragically.

The third madam and Qiao Li stood on the side with gloomy faces. “Where’s Lu Ying?”

Lu Ying was taking care of Old Master Qiao but he also came out of the house after hearing the commotion outside.

The moment he came out, he saw that Qiao Ying’s casket had been opened.

He knew that Qiao Ying had died, but he didn’t know that she had died such a tragic death.

“Lu Ying, please come here.” Qiao Yue noticed Lu Ying. “Can you help me check what kind of poison is in Qiao Ying’s body?”

Lu Ying pricked Qiao Ying’s body with a needle, causing her to bleed a little.

Everyone held their breath as they looked at Qiao Yue and Lu Ying.

This was the first time such a thing had happened at the Qiao residence.

“This doesn’t seem to be poison, but some kind of paralytic.”

Lu Ying’s words dropped like a bomb.

The crowd began to discuss.

“Paralytic? That means that Qiao Ying isn’t dead at all.”

“Yes. The paralytic Miss Qiao Ying took can make a person appear dead for up to three days. After that, Miss Qiao Ying would wake up naturally. But when she wakes up, she won’t be able to open the casket and will eventually starve to death.”

Everyone was shocked when they heard Lu Ying’s explanation.

This was no decent way to die.

“This is a young miss of their family. How could they force her to die in such an undignified way?”

“Yeah. If the old master is in good health, he would have been angered to death.

How could they force their own child to die like this?”

“This is too vicious. I’ve never seen such a vicious family.”

“That’s right. And the current head of the Qiao family is actually protecting these two people?”

Qiao Jing’s expression was still cold and emotionless. His eyes softened a little when he looked at Qiao Yue.

“Since it’s a paralytic, Dr. Lu Ying must be able to revive her, right?” Qiao Jing said coldly.

“I don’t know much about that. I’m not good at detoxification, but my teacher is an expect. Good thing is that my teacher’s favorite disciple is here. Maybe she can solve the problem faster.”

Lu Ying was already a master in medicine; his teacher was even more famous.

His teacher’s favorite disciple must be someone very skillful too.

“Is that doctor here now?” Qiao Yu asked.

Lu Ying nodded and looked at Qiao Yue.

“Qiao Yue is my senior and my teacher’s favorite disciple..”
